00:00Hello. It'll stay rather cloudy and very mild over the next few days with little change

00:06to our weather. Now, the reason we're seeing very little change is because our weather

00:10pattern is not really changing. We've got this string of fronts pushing up from the

00:15southwest, just continuing to clip the far northwest of the UK. Ahead of that, we've

00:20got a stream of southwesterly air. On Thursday night, that southwesterly air is going to

00:25bring a lot of cloud to the bulk of the UK, as well as some rain to the far northwest,

00:31where the rain has been persisting for a day or so now. So, the rain will continue across

00:37the isles of Stornoway and Lewis, as well as western areas of the Highlands, where up

00:41to 100 millimetres of rain could fall over the next few days. Elsewhere, though, it'll

00:48be largely dry, though there could be some spots of drizzle across the high ground of

00:53as well as northern parts of England. For all of us, though, it is going to be a noticeably

00:59mild night. These temperatures on the chart are higher than the daytime average for this

01:05time of year. So, it will be a very mild start to Friday, but it will be quite windy too,

01:11especially so for southeastern areas of Scotland. There's a warning in force as gusty winds may

01:18bring travel delays for high-sided vehicles. The rain across the far north of Scotland will

01:24sink into southern areas of Scotland and central Scotland, as well as Northern Ireland through

01:29Friday afternoon, bringing brighter skies for a time behind it. There'll also be some

01:34bright skies in the southeast, where it will feel very warm for the time of year. Highs

01:39of up to 18 degrees are possible for some areas of England. There will be quite breezy,

01:45with some drizzle every now and then across high ground in western parts of the UK.

01:52So, a rather cloudy end to the week, with rain pushing in to more northern areas of

01:57England overnight. To the north of this rain, we'll see some fresher air push in across

02:03northern England and parts of Northern Ireland, allowing for a cooler night on Friday night here.

02:08To the south of the rain, though, another mild one, and it will be calmer than previous days.

02:15However, that will allow quite a lot of widespread mist and fog and low cloud to develop

02:20across the far southeast, so it could be a bit of a murky start to the weekend.

02:26That fog could persist through Sunday as well, though for many areas it'll be a dry and fine

02:32weekend, with rain largely just affecting the far north of the UK. But you can find a full,

02:39detailed weather forecast for the weekend on our YouTube channel. I'll see you later.
